Erin van Londen, who alerted police to the incident, told The Irish Examiner the mischievous Minion was causing traffic problems after it got on top of cars.
"I told the police that this could sound like a weird phone call, but a loose inflatable Minion was causing traffic problems," she said.
The Minion was deflated by police and its immense 9 metre frame was taken away in a wheelbarrow.
